In this review, the morphology of barred galaxies at optical wavelengths is discussed, focussing mainly on early to intermediate revised Hubble types in the range S0+ to Sbc. Previous work by Hubble, Sandage, de Vaucouleurs, Vorontsov-Velyaminov, and Kormendy is described. The primary emphasis is on ring phenomena, and morphological results from the Catalog of Southern Ringed Galaxies are summarized.
